It's right about now that I feel that Winter has gone on long enough..... with the exception of last weeks snow extravaganza. Just looking at our trees make me shiver, with their naked branches and I immediately get the feeling that I should be crochet bombing my garden. Except I'm not crafty. Sorry trees...

I walked up to the chook pen and LOOK a blossom!

Lifes mystery....

The red camellias are lasting much better in a vase than the pink ones.

These are a few branches of Pussy Willow that I lopped off to bring into the house, usually I don't think much about it, except that I was in Sydney the other day and walked past a florist. What do you think I saw.....3 branches tied into a bunch and I think they were magnolia blossom sticks, and HOW MUCH $45.00 dollars. OMG WHAT!!!

We have tons of this stuff I could be making a fortune.

Hellebores

and Daffodils are beautiful Winter flower...

The divine smelling Daphne....has to have good drainage.

Primula is a fantastic plant because it self seeds. This year I didn't have to buy a single plant....it helped that we had a lot of rain and the soil remained nice and damp.

I'm in love with the skeletal hydrangea petals at the moment....

The Arum Italicum does not get affected by frost and is an excellent filler in the garden.
